Having survived World War II in Poland, my friend and mentor Alexander Harris founded General Tours in 1947 with the conviction that travel could build bridges of cross-cultural understanding. Since our first-of-its-kind tours to the Soviet Union in 1955 we've remained at the forefront of international travel, helping culturally inquisitive Americans explore 85 far-flung destinations on all seven continents.
Thus, for 74 years, our company. When Alex Harris arrived in the USA from Poland, the ravages of the recent war were hardening into a new cold version of mistrust and hostility. The optimistic, young Mr. Harris knew that travel is a great way to break the borders of distrust in the world. In 1955, Alex was granted special approval by the Eisenhower White House to operate the first scheduled tours to the Soviet Union.
